Summary : Written for the Primeval100 challenge 359, “You’re Needed Here.”
Nick Cutter was a man who rarely evinced surprise, despite the sometimes startled appearance of his hair, but he certainly looked surprised now.
“You can’t do this!” Nick brandished the note Stephen had just given him. “You’re needed here.”
Stephen turned to leave. There was no point in arguing.
“Stephen! We need to talk…”
“The time for talking was eight years ago. But I missed that particular boat.”
“We can change things…”
“As you keep saying, Cutter, we can’t change the past. You know that as well as I do.”
But Stephen wished with all his heart that they could.

The past can't be changed, but the future can.

Date: 2014-03-23 09:23 am (UTC)Eeeek! But at least that has given Nick a wake-up call and he has realised and saying that he doesn't want Stephen to leave!
Hee re Nick's hair.
So angsty - Stephen admitting his faults and resigned to what he thinks is the inevitable, but Cutter is very stubborn and I'm sure that a moment later Nick tackles him and firmly convinces him that they can work things out
